Rumba.
Cocktail bar & restaurant in Congleton, Cheshire.
Awarded Best Restaurant & Bar Design £500k - £750k at the Northern Design Awards 2018
Status: Completed June 2018
Scope: Lead Designer - Concept & Interior Design
Description: Cocktail bar operators Life & Soul Ltd. approached me to create an interior design concept in late 2017. The site in question is to be the new home for their existing Rumba cocktail bar in the same town, with a Tiki/Mexicana theme. The proposed layout includes the relocation of the outdoor space to create an indoor/outdoor terrace along the shopfront, increasing street presence and providing a unique space. Detail design has proved to be key in delivering the concept, with bespoke made caravan booth seating, unique raised booth seating in an organic flowing form, plus beach chair style banquettes.
